Battery Life
Battery life depends on how often the device updates. A typical setup with 30 updates per day can last around 6 months on a full charge.
To get the longest battery life:
- Use a longer update interval (e.g. every 3 hours for weather, every 10 minutes for transport)
- Set quiet hours so the device doesn't update overnight
Privacy
MyStation-Go uses your WiFi to find your approximate location when you first set it up — this is just to help you find nearby transport stops and get the right weather. It is not exact and is only used during setup.
After setup, the device only connects to the internet to fetch weather data, transport departure times, and to check for software updates. It does not share your personal information with anyone.
